Jae Tips Reveals His Saucony Jazz 9 Collaboration
Dubbed “I Love You But Im Busy,” the colorful collab adds another chapter to the duo’s fast-growing legacy.
John “Jae Tips” Cotton and Saucony are coming off a banner 2024 thanks to two collaborative colorways of the Matrix silhouette and, of course, the ProGrid Omni 9 “To-Do List,” a silhouette that garnered serious “sneaker of the year” conversation. They’re not taking their foot off the gas in 2025 either, as Tips has revealed a new Jazz 9 collaboration via a post on his Instagram.
Tips and Saucony are almost a half-dozen collabs deep, and their firmly established visual language — bright, bold and colorful — is continued here. Neon-toned shades of pink, orange, yellow and blue can all be seen, with hits of white, grey and black providing a touch of easygoing contrast. A carabiner that holds a multi-colored flower is attached to the left shoe’s laces.
The key detail, however, can be seen across the heels: the left shoe says “I Love You,” while the right shoe clarifies “But Im [sic] busy.” Though Tips has yet to reveal the theme for this collaborative release, there’s a good chance it’s a salute to his busy lifestyle. The aforementioned “To-Do List,” for example, was designed to be the perfect shoe to wear while checking off the tasks on one’s to-do list.
A release date and pricing information have yet to be revealed, but are likely to surface soon. Stay tuned for further updates as they’re made available.
